TAP have a flight ticket auction every thursday on their website
www.tap.pt and then go to drop down menu "leiloes". You can get some good last minute deals.
I saw some cheap flights to St. Tome e Principe so thought I would take a look on the net to see what it was like.
You gotta see the official tourism website at
http://www.saotome.st/ it is just priceless!!

I forgot to log off earlier..so just seen this one!
Biffa...Sao Tome & Principe?
Presume these are islands ..former Portuguese colonies yes?
Are they off the African coast?
Had a drink last holiday..a herbal tea..at Lagoa parks cafe...Sonia..the girl there..made me the tea from herb in her garden..called 'Principe' !
Presume it must originate from the island!
Delicious drink..citrus flavour ..sweet..doesnt need sugar...the leaves like those of the Iris..she gave me some to make at home..

Hi Ellie
Yes they are on the equator just off the west african coast just below the "bulge" of Africa. Crazy website though. You must take a look at the photos, especially the plate of food (?)

Hi Biffa!
Just taken a look..took me all of...2 minutes
What on earth is that..on that plate

...looks to me like large lumps of overcooked liver

Dread to think what else it might be..do they have jungles there
I clicked on the 'facts' and only got pics..no facts!

The photos are great

i think the burning cigerette in the ashtray next to the food

tops it off.

I loved the fag and ashtray by the unidentifiable meal and how none of the links worked. Incredible! Steen can get some tips from this site!
Let me know how the Baia turns out!!
